[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 1034278, member: 2189"] I would start with the root word "liber" which from the latin means "the free ones" and also means "book" or source of knowledge. Liber is the word for bark which was an early material upon which writing took place, thus knowledge was transported to others. From liber we get: liberal [B]library[/B] [B]liberty[/B] libertarian Notice a trend that both knowledge and liberty have a strong connection? Now why would America want a dumbed down population incapable of knowledge, critical thinking and the use of words? But in Big's defense, how come the modern idea of liberal in the political landscape of partyarchy doesn't fit the historical use of the term? [/QUOTE]
